Parker's current favorite: Cornelius P. Mud, Are You Ready For Bed?
Parker is in love with books. He show little interest in other toys at the moment and instead prefers to carry around a book – mostly any book will do. If he happens to see you wander by while he’s carrying a book, he beelines to you and holds up the book with this pleading look in his eye and only someone with superhuman strength can say “no, I can’t ready you that book right now” which means that we have been reading lots and lots of board books in our house lately. It’s adorably cute. We were thrilled when Xander reached this phase – for a long time the only “toys” we had in our living room was just a bookcase overflowing with all of his favorites. It’s great to get back here and have lots of cuddling and reading time with the little guy
Xander loves books – to be read to and sometimes to read to us. We always read books before bed, and he of course has his favorites (which often are not my favorites or Zach’s favorites…) One that the three of us actually all enjoy is The Little Mouse, the Red Ripe Strawberry and the Big Hungry Bear. Lately Xander has been reading some of his books to us, and we find them quite entertaining. So, if Zach happens to be reading books to Xander, and Xander decides he wants to “read” Zach will sometimes record the audio on his iPhone. Last week he decided to pair the audio with the book (it helps for those of you who do not have the book memorized). So, if you’re looking for some entertaining audio to go along with your book reading, check out the video
